Chapter 41: A Straight Stick (Thanks to Qi Bao for the reward)
In order to make it easier for these people to live, the village head arranged these people, and then went to other houses to crowd them. Before leaving, he locked all the horses into the cowshed.
The cowshed of the village chief’s house was built like a small house, with only one window and one door, surrounded by mud. After all the horses were locked in, even the windows and doors were firmly inserted from the outside.
Li Qing muttered: Village Chief, you are too careful, don't you often get thieves?
The village head sighed: It would be better if I was a thief, I'm afraid it's not a thief.
He warned again and again, saying: Guys, I didn't want to take you in at first, but it will rain soon, and the old man took you in for the sake of God. You must not come out at night, whether it is Whoever knocks, don't open the door.
Qi Yun, A Da, Li Qing and the others frowned again.
Old man, what's the matter? Why don't you explain it clearly, otherwise, what should we do if we wake up all night? You can urinate in the house, but what if it's a big one?
Qi Yun asked.
With hesitation on his face, the village chief touched the one hundred taels of silver in his pocket and struggled.
After a long time, he sighed heavily.
Forget it, it doesn't matter if the old man doesn't make money with his conscience, let me tell you the truth, our village is haunted by demons, and at night, any living thing will die if it comes out, no matter whether it is a human or an animal, as long as it is dark and does not return Home, come together the next morning, the custody can see their bodies.
So the cowsheds and stables of this family were built like prison cells, just to prevent the monster from harming the cattle and sheep.
Troubleshooting?
Qi Yun and the others showed doubts.
Don't think that I'm lying to you. That monster will knock on the door by itself. When it's dark, you can just sleep. No matter who knocks, don't open the door. Otherwise, you will die if you open the door.
The village chief said: The old man said this, you can stay if you want to stay, if you don't, the hundred taels of silver will be refunded to you.
As he spoke, he took out the previous one hundred taels.
Qi Yun smiled slightly, pushed his palm back, and said, Since you're a monster, why didn't you report it to the authorities before?
Whoever said that he has not reported to the official, the official came once, and three of them disappeared that night, and no one will take care of the report after that.
said the village chief.
Then why don't you move away, what are you still doing here?
Ah Da asked.
The younger ones are gone, and those of us who can stay are those with poor legs and feet. Besides, it is difficult to leave the homeland. How can we leave as soon as we say, as long as we don't go out at night, we will be fine. We have gotten used to it for so long.
said the village chief.
Okay, thank you old man, we promise not to open the door.
Qi Yun nodded.
The village chief heaved a sigh of relief, stuffed the one hundred taels back into his pocket, turned around and left, and went to explain to the other four quacks.
Second Master, can you believe what this old man says?
Li Qing asked.
I'd rather believe in something than nothing.
Qi Yun said: Also, those four quacks just now are not kind people, be careful that they will come over at night.
Don't worry, Second Master, I've noticed them a long time ago.
Ah Da's eyes turned cold.
The sky darkened quickly, and Qi Yun and the others went to bed early after eating dry food.
The old man's house is not too small, Qi Yun has one room, and the rest of the people are divided into two rooms, just enough to squeeze in.
Not long after they lay down, there was a torrential rain outside, and the sound was harsh, accompanied by bursts of thunder, booming and deafening.
A torrential rain fell for several hours, and finally stopped in the middle of the night.
In the room nearly 100 meters away from them, the four quacks during the day were not asleep. The room was lit with candles. A younger man drew out a steel knife, licked his lips, and said, Master, the four quacks during the day Those few look like rich fat sheep, we can't wait, the rain has stopped, let's go and do it right away, and the old village chief, too, at such an age and so greedy, let's give him a few knives by the way at night.
hehe.
The old man in the lead smiled and said: Don't underestimate those people during the day, there are still a few masters there, and the people that the young boy leads are basically trained.
Another young man next to him curled his lips, and said: Even if you have practiced, so what, are there not many heroes who died at our hands? If we chop them up, maybe we can make a fortune. Look at them during the day. One hundred taels of silver, one can imagine that they are used to being extravagant.
The old man also nodded, and said: Sun Li, you go with them, I'm here to support you.
Don't worry, Mr. Qian.
The middle-aged man also drew out the steel knife, flicked it lightly, and made a metallic clang.
They opened the door, sneaked around, and moved outside.
As soon as they left, the old man in the room was about to get up and close the door.
at this time!
call!
A gust of wind blew through, and the candles in the room were instantly extinguished, and the house was plunged into darkness.
who?
The old man's eyes were wide open, and his reaction was extremely quick. He took a few steps back and grabbed the steel knife in his hand instantly.
The room was pitch black, and through the open door, the moonlight that had just appeared in the yard could be seen, but there was no movement except for the moonlight.
The old man was puzzled, he grasped the steel knife tightly, remained motionless, and waited quietly.
Absolute silence.
After a cup of tea, he frowned and walked out the door.
The courtyard was empty, and there was no movement.
It seems that the old man is too sensitive.
The old man whispered and closed the door again.
Boom boom.
As soon as the door was closed, there was a sound like chewing bones. The old man's eyes widened and he turned around suddenly.
ah!
An exclamation stopped abruptly.
…
far away.
The middle-aged man and the two young men had just turned over the wall not far away when they heard a scream-like sound from behind, and couldn't help frowning.
What's the situation, is Qian always calling?
Sun Li was puzzled.
Certainly not, who is Master, how could it be him calling, don't think too much, maybe some villager is having a nightmare, hurry up and make a fortune.
A young man can't wait to say.
They moved again and turned towards the courtyard where Qi Yun and the others were.
As soon as this side reached the top of the wall, Qi Yun in the room suddenly opened his eyes, holding the black iron stick in his hand.
Give me quick hands and feet, don't get entangled, and make a quick decision.
On the wall, the middle-aged man whispered.
The two young men next to each other nodded, their eyes sparkling.
Don't worry, there will be one knife at a time, and no one will run away.
Well, go down.
Sun Li nodded and jumped down from the wall.
at this time!
boom!
The window exploded, and the black iron rod flew out of the air, like a black light, and slammed on Sun Li's body, causing him to groan, his body flew across the spot like a broken sack for more than ten meters, smashed through the wall, and landed on the ground. In the distance, the dead can no longer die.
As soon as the two young people landed, they were stunned, looked back, swallowed, and showed horror.
